@@HarryLowtonIT Oh yes, all about Microsoft 365 and Teams, I'm currently installing Microsoft 365 with Teams (nothing big, we're a golf club, 10 licenses), so far Office 2016. I hope that I can move my 3 Windows VMs to Azure during the year. My goal is a serverless installation :-)

[@mquiobeable]

Excellent video, I had zero experience with Intune and AutoPilot, with your video I was able to setup Intune and AutoPilot using a Office 365 Trial account. A couple of things I want to mention during my setup. 1. You need to add the Enterprise Mobility + Security E5 trial to your tenant 2. You need to assign the above licenses to the users in addition to the E3 trial license 3. Lastly, be patient! It took like 15 minutes to for the sync to complete to show the profile was assigned and the installation of the Office products takes awhile and will show the install as pending at the device install status. Thanks so much for the video. Looking to forward to learning more from your videos. Suscribed!

Thanks, Harry. In this video, you have added the device under the Security Group. Can we add the user email/upn?

[@droy333]

Cool video, looking into doing this soon. You kinda glazed over the HWID in the real world part. Who is responsible for handing over the hardware id if you are shipping from a distributor/reseller straight to the user? For existing semi registered devices is the Device ID the same as the Hardware ID? Obviously the HWID is different even for identical models of computers.

[@black7987echo]

Yeah I was hoping for more info on that.

[@AmarSingh-co1fq]

The distributor shares the list of hardware id's to the organization (excel/csv). However what I do not understand how does the laptop know the password for the end user and the organizations branding? Edit: I found the answer here in this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/Zl7KZJWOZch0rs0

Halo Mister.. the first email you added after reset. is that admin email account or user where we registererd ?

[@SweDownhill]

Thanks for this video! How would you go about to deploy a windows machine with Autopilot that will be used by multiple users? Can one user sign in like shown in this video with the others being able to login afterwards, or does it need to be handled in another way? The reason I'm asking is because I assume there's a limit of how many machines a single user can enroll, and that the onboarding could potentially be different depending on who does the initial sign in (due to different group memberships, ie different apps and compliances available to them).

Thank you for the detailed breakdown of the installation + configuration. Maybe I missed this but I am wondering if I can run the autopilot process without having the machine imported? You mentioned that the OEM provider can install this for you but what if your users purchase machines from local vendors and they just get vanilla windows, they can register for intune through the account settings but can you then auto import and run the autopilot profile config? Thank you so much !

[@sahil2068]

You have to manually import the hardware ID in Intune if the vendor cannot register for you. See from 5:22

[@paullawrence4833]

Hi Harry. Great video it explained a lot but I have a problem that I hope you can answer. I have pretty much followed all your steps to setup a test at the company I work for. The only thing I have setup differently is the scop of the MDM enrollment. Instead of selecting "All" I have it as "Some" and have applied a group the all my devices belong to. Autopilot seems to work but the devices are not enrolling into Intune. I can manually enroll them by entering the MDM URL but nothing happens if Leave the device to itself. No apps or configuration is applied. The only part I haven't completed is the setting up of the CNAME resource record, is this my missing link?

[@iamajmontgomery]

Can you reuse that same script for multiple devices relative to the same hardware once the csv file has been uploaded or does each device needs it's own csv file?

[@HarryLowtonIT]

You can add multiple devices to the CSV file. However, in production you will want to set it up so that the company you buy your devices from uploads the hardware information to your intune environment.

[@iamajmontgomery]

@@HarryLowtonIT there's actually an easier way for when you are importing them into intune without actually using a csv file. You can use the following script to automate each device bypassing: • Run Powershell ISE as admin • Copy the following script in the script box above the Powershell Command Box Set-ExecutionPolicy bypass Install-Script -Name Get-WindowsAutopilotInfo -Force Get-WindowsAutopilotInfo -online • You will be prompted to enter your account credentials • Next, sign into your portal Just a thought

Another question is, why this step done manually? is there anyway to automate this as well so you won't do it in advance? Thank you! Afik

[@dashdoger135]

the tutorial is how to set it up from out of the box experience, not just about getting the device into Intune. He even says this is a example of what the vendor would do if you have this set up. If your a vendor then you will have this data to upload so you can make it automatic. But if your just looking to get the computer joined than and don't want it pre-loaded in Intune than don't follow this tutorial.

[@JLALALALA]

Harry, this was a good tutorial. Our organization is testing a proof of concept autopilot/endpoint but we seemed to be going a different way by using user accounts assigned to device groups to auto enroll. The users accounts are designed to mimic a real user account in azure or ad and signing in kicks off the process. I’m wondering if your way is better but I’m not sure. One issue we have is the hybrid environment. We have a real azure tenant controlled by a much larger organization above us. How do you think this would be possible if our company of 3000 computers wanted to move to autopilot on their tenant but the rest of the other companies of say 40,000 weren’t going to, at least not yet. That company branding ad page kind of scared me because we’d need about 100 of these.

[@TTitus83]

Excellent step-by-step video on how to configure InTune AutoPilot. Very educational and well documented. I do have one question. I followed along with you and when you get to the hardware ID steps. I'm using a laptop for my test box instead of a VM. I ran the script and generated the .CSV file, imported into Autopilot devices perfectly. My issue is when I go to add this newly added device to a group. It's not showing up to add member. I have run the sync option and still unable to find the device.

[@sahil2068]

I believe your laptop was Azure AD joined before and that's why they are still under "Azure Devices" even after you reset it. In Intune, under Autopilot devices, click on the enrolled device. And on the right panel you should see the "Associated Azure AD device:" Add that device in the group and then Sync.
